In response to the query: "Hi list, I am just wondering if anyone on the list here had ancestors who came from Canach, Luxembourg? My Ggrandparents immigrated from there to Iowa in 1880. My grandfather was just 6 years old at the time. If so, where did they settle when coming to America? Phyllis in Iowa Mathias Moes married Eva Foh in Canach in 1821. Their son Nicholas Moes, born in Canach 1825, married Marie Erpelding in 1855, (she was born there in 1825.) and died in Bellwood Nebraska in 1900. Their son Ferdinand Moes was born in Canach in 1867. He came to America after his marriage to Catherine Engel as she died in David City Nebraska in 1898. They had three children. After his wife's death he returned to Canach, married his late wife's sister Suzanne Engel and returned to Nebraska with the understanding if she didn't like it they would go back to Lux. She didn't like it and they returned and both are buried in Lux. Some of their children stayed in Lux. others settled in Illinois, eastern Iowa and Butler County Nebraska. -E. Moes-
